Can't Explain

(Album: Too Many Humans, Not Enough Souls. - 2022)

Hey Mum
What happened to Dad
Why'd you have to be so sad?
I must admit
It's been quite a bit of time since I was last mad
Don't say you're giving away
My favourite piano, please
It's where I learned the melody from
An advert I saw on TV

So darling, isn't it strange
All I can say is
We'll never be young again
Don't go running away
Darling, just stay
We'll never be young again

We would be happy
Running around
Exploring all these possibilities
I could be Captain Kirk
Or conquering Earth
Peculiar games we'd play
How funny is it
When we all grow up
Dreaming of a simpler time
I can't explain
The feeling I get
When everything seems to unwind

So darling, isn't it strange
All I can say
We'll never be young again
Don't go running away
Darling, just stay
We'll never be young again

I can't explain what the future holds
And I can't explain all the truth that's told
I can't explain it all
Can't explain it
We'll never be young again

No matter where we're from and who we become
It's only just a rocket we made
So grab your microscope, your moon boots and coat
For a galaxy far far away

Darling, isn't it strange
All I can say
We'll never be young again
Don't go running away
Darling, just stay
We'll never be young again

I can't explain what the future holds
And I can't explain all the truth that's told
I can't explain it all
Can't explain it
We'll never be young again
